ADOBE DIRECTOR 11.0 360 User Guide This separation is deliberate and valuable: it can be important for a collision to be registered. In a game, for example, a projectile could strike a wall and the player's score could be increased. However, in that same game, you might not want the projectile to bounce off the wall. In that case, you'd set the enabled property to TRUE and set the resolve property to FALSE. Collision notification can also be implemented by using registerScript() on a specific model in addition to using the setCollisionCallback() technique. Use the following properties to work with the collision modifier: Property Access whichModel.collision. Get and set enabled whichModel.collision. Get and set resolve whichModel.collision. Get and set immovable whichModel.collision.mode Get and set Description Default TRUE (1) or FALSE (0) value indicating whether collisions between this model and other models will trigger a collision event. TRUE (1) TRUE (1) or FALSE (0) value indicating whether collisions are automatically resolved. If the value is TRUE (1) and if the other model has the collision modifier applied and has enabled set to TRUE (1), the models will be moved back to the position of their original contact. TRUE (1) TRUE (1) or FALSE (0) value indicating whether the model can be moved. If a model cannot be moved, the 3D Xtra can save time by not checking it for collisions with other models that also have their immovable property set to TRUE. FALSE (0) Indicates the geometry to be used in the collision detection algorithm. Using simpler geometry such as the bounding sphere leads to better performance. The possible values for this property are: #mesh: uses the actual mesh geometry of the model's resource. This gives one-triangle precision and is usually slower than #box or #sphere. #box: uses the bounding box of the model. This is useful for objects that can fit more tightly in a box than in a sphere, such as a wall. #sphere: is the fastest mode, because it uses the bounding sphere of the model. This is the default value. Collision modifier methods Use the following method to work with the collision modifier:
